Here's a little walktrough my last picture of SpongeBob SquarePants. Yes, I know, I'm to old for that. But I thought it was a good exercice for my students in Paris. As they don't have very good drawing skills, we just put some colors on picture I found on the internet. The goal of the exercice was to create good volumes with very cartoon shapes. We used Photoshop.

Step 1 : Here's the coloring for kids we use for the exercice. I don't own any right on this picture.

Step 2 : I choosed my ambient light. The sketch is on a multiply layer on the top.

Step 3 : I choosed the direct lights.

Step 4 : I did a solid swath of yellow. I choosed this yellow accordingly with the background color.

Step 5 : With the soft round brush and a very low opacity, I painted the darkest parts and the shadows. I decreased the opacity of the layer of the sketch.

sweet dude,no offense but your english is quite funny :D,well you are french so its understandable,i was wondering if you could show us your students versions, and of course an excellent work as always

you should consider doing a video process of this. i think many would benifit from seeing how it was done rather then being told. amazing work however im a big fan of your stuff! your style of shading is amazing and it blows my mind every time i look at your gallery on DA.

also sorry for the second reply, but to add to my previous message if you ever do a video process people can view over and over again. (not like live stream) you should explain why your using the brush your using what colors your using when you use them and why. so on and so forth....

just imagine we are all 5 year olds that dont know any better. not to say were all that intelligent but i think it would make for the best learning experience.

Serge - Thank you so much for this! Between your step-by-steps and Matt Kohr's videos, I'm finally making some progress - http://heliotropicsquirrel.deviantart.com/art/Spongebob-Painting-001-369829695?q=gallery%3Aheliotropicsquirrel&qo=0.

Its like you read my mind! You appear to understand so much approximately this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I believe that you simply could do with some percent to power the message house a bit, however instead of that, this is fantastic blog. A great read. I’ll definitely be back.Paints colour ideas NepalCheap paints colors NepalWall Paints Nepal
